In the times of the pandemic, many are cautious of the gathered spaces they attend in an effort to stay away from possibly contracting the corona virus. With this is mind, FemmeCreativeJa conceptualized and executed a “social distanced pop up experience”, hosted by Toyota Jamaica. The show ran from Wednesday August 26, to Saturday August 29, 2020 and featured some of Jamaica’s budding female creatives and their wares for sale.

Who is FemmeCreativeJa?

FemmeCreativeJa is an initiative spearheaded by Summer KAJ Jarrett and Debra Edwards, to showcases the creativity of women as they support themselves and each other in the creative industry.

The show is currently closed, but all of the creatives on show can be contacted through their social media and their wares will be available for purchase. Below is a snippet of what they all have to offer. I hope you find some things that are just right for you!

If there is anything that caught your eye, feel free to reach out to the femme creative and support! Go ahead and follow the pages as well, while you’re at it. I’m looking forward to more pop-ups like these as we normalize the “new-normal”.
